Reviving my personal blog

A year back I left this blog to start blogging on my own domain name and since then it has been very difficult to write a lot of personal thoughts there as I am always afraid it will confuse a lot of people who come to my blog.

I have decided to write back again here. Lot of personal thoughts .. certainly nothing much about business or Muziboo. There have been a few personal triggers lately to start blogging here again.

Feels nice to be back again here as I don't have to think about what am writing here and if it will make sense to everyone.

Trying out the new camera

Tried out the new EOS400D camera and the sigma 70-300mm lens yesterday at ranganathittu bird sanctuary near Mysore. Some shots came out well although a DSLR is still very very baffling to me compared to a point and shoot. I think a long way to go before I can take great pictures .. the kinds that originally inspired me to buy a DSLR :)

Got it!

I finally got the following gear:

Canon EOS400D Kit
Sigma 70-300mm DG Macro Lens
2 GB Sandisk Compact Flash Card
A couple of UV filers, bags etc

I got the stuff from Jayesh, Chikpet, Bangalore. Must say a nice enthu guy :).
Will click some pictures soon and post them somewhere. I plan to start a photoblog or start tagging these posts with soemthing so that I can keep a track of them in future :)

Ubuntu !

So I finally installed ubuntu on my laptop and quite a few softwares too. I have installed 7.04 and the only issue was in getting the wireless working. I have Dell Inspiron 2200 and have wireless mini pci 1370 b/g adapter. I followed the instructions here finally and it was up and working. I think the main thing is to use the driver files for ndiswrapper from the link given in this forum post.

Feels good to be running linux again!
